Dreams Dissolve in darkness

In the dead of night, her prince reveals his true form, A wolf in sheep's clothing, his heart as cold as ice, She's trapped in a nightmare, no fairy godmother in sight, Her glass slippers shattered, her dreams left to freeze Her heart, once on her sleeve, now lies frozen and alone, Shattered like the glass that once adorned her feet, She's a prisoner to his lies, a puppet on a string, Her fairytale is over, her story incomplete. The clock strikes midnight, her carriage turns to ash, The ballroom's lights now dim, the music fades away, She's left with nothing but a broken heart and tears, A fairytale gone wrong, her happy ending astray.. And so she vanishes, a shadow in the night, A phantom of her former self, her dreams now out of sight, No prince, no love, no happy ever after, Just a shattered heart and a fairytale's disastrous disaster.. In the cold and lonely silence, Cinderella weeps for a love that never was, And as her tears fall, the darkness consumes her, a heartbroken soul lost in the shadows." "Dreams Dissolve in darkness"
